Islam-Image
Während in islamischen Ländern die Sympathie für Selbstmordattentate fällt, nimmt in Europa die Antipathie gegenüber dem Islam dennoch zu. Das ist das blamable Ergebnis einer Studie von “Pew Global Attitudes”:
Opinions about Muslims in almost all of these countries are considerably more negative than are views of Jews. Fully half of Spanish (52%) and German respondents (50%) rate Muslims unfavorably. Opinions about Muslims are somewhat less negative in Poland (46%) and considerably less negative in France (38%). About one-in-four in Britain and the United States (23% each) also voice unfavorable views of Muslims. Overall, there is a clear relationship between anti-Jewish and anti-Muslim attitudes: publics that view Jews unfavorably also tend to see Muslims in a negative light.
Gleichzeitig befindet sich in Europa auch der Antisemitismus im Aufwind – im Gegensatz zur These des ansonsten so geschätzten Avi Primor.
Behält Ralph Peters also recht?

Naja, während der Anti-Semitismus der Europäer noch steigerungsfähig ist, geht das bei den meisten Muslimen der PEW-Studie zufolge kaum noch, denn dann erreicht man die 100 Prozent.
“While European views towards Jews have become more negative, the deepest anti-Jewish sentiments exist outside of Europe, especially in predominantly Muslim nations. The percentage of Turks, Egyptians, Jordanians, Lebanese and Pakistanis with favorable opinions of Jews is in the single digits.”
